WHAT TO TAKE IN THE SUITCASE WHEN WE TRAVEL WITH CHILDREN

The month of August is here, the month of vacation trips, suitcases that don't close, trunks that look like a Tetris game to fit in, suitcases with more “just in case” than essentials, beach bags and backpacks for excursions.

The most forward-thinking make lists of everything they don't want to forget and others prefer to improvise with the closet wide open... but we all have something in common... when we arrive at the dream destination, we discover that we have forgotten something...

Therefore, we propose a list that you can download to mark everything that identifies with the needs of your trip and with the needs of the boy and girl to play or enjoy their own free time. Add the optimal amount and then check with your son or daughter if it is already in the luggage.

Ideally, your child will help you and even if they are a little older, they will be responsible for preparing their own suitcase and play backpack. With these two lists, you can have fun together while you prepare your trip.

There is 1 element that can be fun to remember together on vacation, “a travel diary.” For this we give you the following guidelines:

– Prepare a small cardboard notebook

– Decorate the covers

– Prepare a template that collects the following data:

• * Date and city
• * Who have we met? And frame for drawing or photo
• * Little box to paste the public transport ticket/ticket…
• * Area/park/beach/museum visited
• * Box to draw what you liked the most
• * Favorite meal of the day

In this way, each excursion or important activity of the trip will serve to entertain the little one during the adults' downtime or nap time. In addition, over time it will become part of the entire family's library of memories in a creative way. 

We wish you a safe trip and happy holidays.
